Don´t scare chick we start so easy for you!

...
Let see for today!...hummmm

1.- do you have another name futhermore to Katherine?

Do you mean like a middle name? If that's what you're talking about, then yes I do! My middle name is Anne.

If you mean nickname, then no. I don't really go by anything but Katherine, though there are one or two people that I let call me Kat.
2.- Have you ever to visit Mexico? wich Part?

No I haven't! I would love to visit though. My mom has been and visited the Mayan ruins and she has always told me it's amazing!
3.- Can you speak Spanish?

Somewhat. I've had a total of 5 years of it, but I'm definitely not great at it!
4.- Do you like the Mexican Food? Tell us the truth!

OOOOH I LOOOOOVE MEXICAN FOOD!

Especially if it's spicy! The spicier, the better!!!!

5.- Have you ever to sleep in a hammock?

No I haven't slept in one. I've relaxed in the sun in a hammock though and they're very nice!
6.- do you know about it the Mayan culture?

I know a bit. I always thought it was really interesting!
7.- do you wear sandals? do you like it? how many pairs do you have?

I practically LIVE in sandals! I LOVE them and hate wearing closetoed shoes. I just counted 10 pairs!

Told you I love them!

8.- How many languages can you speak fluenty?

Just English. It would be great to really be fluent in a second language though.
9.- Do you like Star Wars Saga? are you a big fan of there?

Honestly, I've never seen any of the Star Wars movies!

*runs and hides*
10.- the name Katherine come from your lovely mommie or your beutiful Grand ma?

It was given to me by my mom, but it's not a family name. My mom always loved the name and really loved Katharine Hepburn. So, partially I'm named Katherine after her, though I spell it with an 'e' in the middle instead of an 'a'!

Enoght for today sweet chick!

this should be a great week!!!!

Muahahahahaaha!!!

...

...

I'm scared to see what questions I'll end up getting this week!!!!

PS: don´t kiss worms or snails!!! they are nuts!

Believe me Rigel, I'll be looking out for those worms and snails!!

Thanks for the questions!! They were great!

1. How did you meet Brendan? Well, I met him in high school. I was a senior and he was a sophomore and he actually started dating one of the girls in my group. I was dating my ex Omar at the time and we all used to hang out. I thought Brendan was wayyy cuter than Omar (sad, I know

) and definitely much funnier! So, when Kim (my friend that Brendan was dating) dumped him and ALL of my friends shunned him, I made a point to go out of my way to find him in the halls and just say hi. Skip ahead a bit, when I finished my freshman year of college and moved back home for the summer Brendan was finishing up his junior year of hs. I saw him at his old job one day (Eckerd Pharmacy) and gave him my number. We became friends again and pretty soon after that we started dating!

2. What do you do when you're teaching a fitness class and your butt is itching??

At first I try to ignore it. If it won't stop though I wait until I have an opportunity where we're about to sit down on the mats or I'm about to walk around the room to check on everyone and just try to subtly go for it. If I have a wedgie while I'm teaching I do pretty much the same thing!!

3. How awesome would it be if us southeastern members had a convention in Orlando? It would be really, really, really, REALLY awesome! This would be me:

4. Ok, if we did have a convention in Orlando and you met me for the first time and you noticed my zipper was undone, would you tell me, right off or wait until you decided if you really liked me or not??

Ok that's a really funny question because one of my good friends and I were just talking about this not too long ago! I would wait until I had the chance to nonchalantly whisper it to you. I wouldn't want to make it obvious or anything. Then, if you wanted, I would walk right in front of you while you reached down and zipped it up, that way no one would notice!

However, if you turned out to be a big pain in the butt I might just watch you walk around with an unzipped fly! hahaha! I somehow doubt I wouldn't like you though!

5. If you and Brendan were going on a trip and for some reason you couldn't have your traditional Chik-fil-a breakfast, what would you have instead? EEK! No Chik-Fil-A!!

Since I think it's important to have a big, filling breakfast before hitting the road I would probably make pancakes or waffles. Either that or he would make eggs and bacon. Either way I would have tea, I'd ask him if he wanted tea, he'd decline saying, "No. I'm having a hot breakfast so I don't want a hot drink" like he always says, and then we'd be on our way!

6. Do you just fall in love with the doggies at the Grayhound place you work at? YES! I love most of them so much!! They're just so pretty and so sweet.

I don't like it when they try to lick my face though.

7. What's the weirdest non-toy thing that Waffle likes to play with? Hmmm...the weirdest. Let's see. I think it's probably Brendan's shoes.

She has a GREAT time with those!

8. Have you ever seen a manatee in the wild? Yes, I have. It's been a while though. I love manatees so much and really hate when people disregard their safety by speeding through the slow zones!!!

9. Ever been stung by a jellyfish or known someone who has? I actually have been stung by a jellyfish and it really, really sucks!!!! I was in New Smyrna Beach (about 20 min south of Ormond Beach where I'm from) with Brendan and his family. We were playing in the waves, I went under the water and felt something hit my face. I came up, realized it was a jellyfish and just as I was telling Brendan I was getting out one wrapped around my right ankle 3 times!! He had to help walk me out of the water and it hurt so, so badly. I had 3 rings around my ankle for a couple of weeks after that. The sting on my face wasn't bad at all though. Sometimes LOADS of jellyfish wash onto shore back at home and they put out all of these advisories and you pretty much can't go to the beach. That doesn't happen very often though.

10. Do you ever feel like the people in your fitness classes are grumbling at you under their breath when you work them really hard??

Yes, I do!! I feel really evil sometimes.

The thought will come up at times that they might genuinely hate me, but I try to push that down as much as I can! You can't please everyone!!

Enjoy your week, Kat! I know I will

Yikes!

I just love it!

Now, for the Q's:


Have you ever been to Canada? If so, where? I actually haven't! It's actually kind of strange that I haven't either considering the part of New York taht most of my family is from. They reside in Western NY, near Buffalo and not far at all from Niagra Falls! My mom and I used to drive allll of the way up there every summer when I was little and my grandmother would always tell me that we had to go to Niagra Falls on the Canada side one day when I came. It never happened though. I would love to see Canada (during the summer though, of course)!

If I (or any other TCS member) came over for dinner, what would you serve? Oh taht would be so exciting!! Hmmm...let me think. I would probably serve this delicious parmesan and spice breaded chicken dish that I've made once before as the main dish. There would also be rice on the side and a salad before the main meal. For veggies I'd sautee up some fresh zucchini, squash, and peppers! Either that or I'd make Brendan make this amazing shrimp and rice dish he made for me for Valentine's Day!!!!

What is your favourite scent? Definitely Beyond Paradise by Estee Lauder.

I could just sniff that all day. It's incredible.

If you could only travel to one place in your lifetime, where would you go? Oh goodness. One place?!?! AHH! Ummm...I think if I could only choose one place I would choose Fiji. It's such a vastly different culture than anything I've experienced that I think it would be great to go there. Of course I would love to travel everywhere, but Fiji wins for only getting to go ONE place!

Do you believe in the paranormal? Have you had any experiences? I definitely do believe in the paranormal. I had some experiences when I was younger, but not so much since then. The one I remember the best was visiting my mom's friend in Pennsylvania (which we did every summer on our way up to NY) and sitting in the living room of her three story house. Mom's friend and mom were having a conversation and I glanced over at the staircase. Once mom and her friend stopped talking I said, "Mom, who's that man on the stairs?" My mom and Judy (her friend) looked over and seeing nothing, asked me what he looked like. The man I described was Judy's recently deceased father, right down to the clothes he was wearing. I had never met him before or even seen a picture. It freaked the crap out of me lol.


That's it for now! I'll be back with some more later!

Thanks for the questions!! This is a blast!

Well, I'll describe it for you now and take a pic Wednesday when I see Brendan and can have access to his digi cam! I promise I won't forget so look back here late Wednesday night for it! Right now it looks totally stocked, but that's because there's a bunch of tupperware filled with really old food taking up all of the space.

It's packed with condiments and juices, jello, cool whip, pickles, bread, and bagels!
-If you have time, take a picture of all your shoes and post it!!
That I will definitely do as well! That one will be up at the same time as the fridge pic (and the pic of my toilet that Gilly requested earlier) on Wednesday. I'll have to organize them all so you can see them before I actually take the pic though.

-What is the funniest thing Waffle has ever done?
Oh this is easy!!

Just the thought of it is going to make me crack up!! One day Waffle came out of my room looking kind of frantic. I was sitting on the couch watching TV and looked at her, wondering what in the heck was going on. Well, it turns out that Waffle had a piece of poop stuck to her butt (gross, I know). When I noticed I went to the bathroom to grab some toilet paper so I could help her out and started trying to catch her. Next thing I know (and this is the hilarious part) Waffle sits herself down, paws in front, feet up in the air, and starts SCOOTING herself across the living room using her front arms/paws only! She was just DRAGGING her butt across the floor. It was the funniest thing I had ever seen. Her ears were back since she was freaking out and it was all I could do to actually help her amidst my hysterical laughter. I started calling her Scoot Butt after that incident!

- What got you into fitness (teaching etc)? During my freshman and sophomore years at college I had three friends begin teaching at the gym. Each of them had been on the dance team in high school with me and each of them started doing it to keep in shape. One day I had a surprise birthday party for Brendan and Kim (who was by then, my junior year, the group exercise coordinator at the gym) was talking to me as I told her I wanted a job. She suggested I teach exercise. Since she did the hiring she pretty much guaranteed me a job as long as I did the necessary certifications and passed since she already knew I knew how to count music from being on the dance team together. That's pretty much how it started.

-Ever broke wind durng an aerobics class?? (by accident of course) Not audibly!

Thank God! I'd probably die of embarrassment since all eyes are on me for most of the class!!!

-What is worse, Brendans or Waffles gas??

HANDS DOWN BRENDAN!!!!!

Yuck!

GET STUPID!

SHAKE YO' BOOTY!

HAVE A GOOD TIME!

UH-UH! UH-UH! WOOP WOOP!

Excellent choice Gilly! This is quite well-deserved!

OK, my turn for some fun....
1. When that jellyfish wrapped itself around your leg, were you tempted to have Brendan pee on the sting like they did on that episode of Friends?

hahahaha!

When we got to shore I remember hoping that that wasn't the only way to get rid of jellyfish sting!!!! Luckily his parents told us to bury that part of my leg in the wet sand and it would gradually take the sting out. They were right, THANK GOD! That episode of Friends is hilarious by the way!
2. Has Brendan ever put you in a Dutch oven? Or have you ever put Brendan in a Dutch oven? A Dutch oven?? What in the heck is that?!

I'm guessing not since I don't know what it is!
3. Do you throw leftovers/perishables/milk/etc. away by their expiration date, or do you forget about it until you have something smelly and moldy in your fridge? I don't always manage to throw them away by their expiration date, but they rarely stay until they're moldy! Usually I get fed up of having so much crap in the fridge and take everything out at once!
4. Ever had someone faint in one of the classes you were teaching? Thankfully, I haven't. Even though I know what to do I'm scared that I'd panic if it actually happened!

The closest anyone has ever come was dizziness, and I told them to sit down and have some water until they felt well enough to participate again.
5. Ever step in dog doo and not realize it until someone else said "Ewww, what's that smell?"

YUCK! I think that has actually happened to me before.

Usually I'm the first to notice though.
6. If you could only communicate using ONE word the rest of your life, what word would you choose? WOW. One word. Hm. I think I would pick "Hello." Think of how many ways you can use hello!! It can be pleasant, it can be a question, it can signify that I think someone's an idiot! The possibilities are endless!!!

7. Bo or Carrie? Erm...I feel like an idiot because I don't get it!!!

Explain please!
8. Ever bought anything off of Ebay? Yes! I've bought tons of stuff over the years. I actually got myself kicked off when I was 16 for not paying for something I bought.

But then, I WAS only 16 when you're supposed to be 18!!! I've had a new account for a few years now though.
8. Who is your favorite purse designer? I really like Coach, but I've never owned a Coach purse. They're just too expensive! I like a lot of Guess bags too, and those I can afford when I go to the Guess outlet!
9. Photo assignment: Take a picture of all of your pairs of Reefs.

Will do! I'll get that posted Wednesday night along with the other pic assignments!
10. What's Waffle's middle name? Ooooh...good question. Hmm. I'd never given her a formal one. I think it should be one of her nicknames. So she can be Waffle Scootbutt, Waffle Girlypants, or Waffle Pie!

11. Did you notice there were two #8 questions??? I did not notice that. You're a sneaky one Miss Amy, veryyyyyyy sneaky.

(And I just wanted to use that smiley, though it doesn't quite fit the context lol!)

Fun questions!!

A Dutch oven is when one person farts in bed and then puts the other person under the covers and closes it up so they're trapped in there with the farty smell!

It's cruel, but it's par for the course with guys!

They're the 2 finalists on American Idol! Bo is the incredibly talented rocker

and Carrie is the blond country singer from Oklahoma.

I KNEW I'd heard that term before, I just couldn't remember what it meant. No, thankfully, we've never given each other one. Brendan would be in for it if he tried it. He has farted on Waffle though.

Ahhhhh American Idol! I honestly can't answer that one since the only episodes I watched were the very first ones!! I'll just root for whoever you're rooting for!

1. ever fell in the toilet while peeing? I can't remember an incident like that happening. I'm sure when I was really young it happened. I also wouldn't doubt that it happened after a long night sometime, when I wasn't quite with it. If ya know what I mean.

2. I know for a fact that everyone likes to scratch their nose, how many times a day do you pick it? Eek. Well, I don't do it daily. If I feel like it needs to be done than maybe once or twice in a day. But like I said, it's not a daily occurrance for me.

3. what is the most digusting colour have you see on your poop? Oh good god.

Green.
4. what foods make you fart? (ive discovered kidney beans last night make me hell)

Hhehehe. Actually Mexican food does!

5. do you and brendan have farting competitions? Nope. He actually never really hears me fart. I'm a burper. I actually frighten him sometimes with my burps!!!
6. do you have your monthly friend today? if not when is it due? I don't have it today. It's due...hmmm...in 3 Wednesday's!
7. Pads or tampons? Tampons all the way. I hate pads. They make you feel like you're wearing a boat in your pants.
8. Do you bite your nails? At times. I used to do it a lot more often than I do now though because Brendan has worked hard at breaking me from the habit. If I'm really stressed or anxious I bite them still.
9. how often do you do your nails? Well, I don't really ever paint my fingernails because my nails don't hold the paint well. They chip almost immediately even if a pro does them. I keep them in shape though by clipping them weekly and using this nail buffer thing once a month. As far as my toe nails go I paint them about once a month.
10. i have a massive cramp inbetween my leg and belly "its on that line" not vagina but its like between the leg adn belly.. get it? how do i get the cramp away? (i need an answer quick because lol i cant move as much anymore) Ummm...have you tried pinching the part of your body where the cramp is for a few minutes? That's usually what I do. That's all I can really think of.

Whew. Some of those were rough!!
